About Luxury Crewed Motor Yacht ANTARES
ANTARES is a Westport 130 purpose-built for Caribbean exploration, accommodating ten guests across five suites. Her tri-deck layout creates distinct social spaces, from the upper-deck jacuzzi and relaxation zones to the flybridge bar and aft dining area. Rich wood panelling, marble accents, and contemporary furnishings establish an interior of quiet refinement rather than ostentation.
Captain Chase commands a professional crew of six whose knowledge of the Bahamas' anchorages and currents is matched only by their culinary skill. The galley produces home-cooked meals that reflect both local ingredients and international technique. This is crewed yachting at its most attentive.
Water activities are comprehensively supported. A 34ft yellow fin tender with twin 350HP engines, wave runners, and a full suite of tow toys and paddle boards enable everything from serious fishing to leisurely exploration. Snorkelling equipment and floats round out the offering for those who prefer the Caribbean at a gentler pace.

The Charter Experience
A week cruising ANTARES through the Bahamas typically combines the colonial charm of Nassau with the crystalline shallows of the Exumas. Anchorages near Staniel Cay offer pristine snorkelling, while the yacht's stability and range permit longer passages to more remote cays. The jacuzzi at sunset, the aft deck's formal dinners, and unscheduled beach landings define the rhythm of a charter here.
Suggested Itinerary
A typical seven-day itinerary departs Nassau for the Exumas, with days split between protected anchorages suitable for snorkelling and fishing, and scheduled passages that showcase the yacht's seagoing ability. Staniel Cay and the northern cays feature prominently, though the crew will tailor any route to prevailing conditions and guest preference.
